ADJUSTABLE MIRROR.

Be it.known that I, BURR LAFoND-HAR- Ris, a citizen ofthe United States,and aresident of Los.- Angeles, in the count of Los ave 1nvented a newand Im roved Adjustable Mirror, of which `the .fo owing is a full,clear,- and exact description. p Y

This invention relates to adjustable mirrors, and more particularl suchas are adapted'to be supported upon t e body of the user;l s'o that themirror willalways be in position. I AnL/object of thkis invention is toprovide an adjustable mirror simple in construction, and j inexpensiveto manufacture, which is adapted to be hung` around the neck of theuser;l A further object of the invention is to,pro `vide a device of theclass described hauving means for adjustably holding the mirror upn thebody in front of the face, so that it can be used inlfshaving, or othersimilar operations.; L f d vThe invention consists in the construction`and eembination of parts to be more ull-y described hereinafter andparticularly set yforth inthe claims. p g

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawin s forming a part ofthis s eciiication, in whic Lsimilar characters of re erence indicatecorresponding' parts in allJ the views.

j Figurel is a perspective view of the device in position to be used;Fig. 2 is an enlarged' '-side elevation showing, in dotted outline, one

of the many positions2in .which the mirrormay be secured; Fig. 3 is anenlarged cross section' showing the means for adjustin the f mirrorcarryingl arm; and Fig. 4 is an e eva- .t1on"`show1ng. part of thedevice with'the mirror folded into an inoperative position.

- Before proceeding to a more detailed description of my'invention, itshouldgbe unany desiredtpartof his head or face.

derstood that I provide a hanger adapted to iit around the neck of aperson, a bracket rej movably secured to the hanger, and an adjustablemirror arranged on the bracket. .'.Alhe mirror is easily adjustable intoa plu-v rality ospositions, so that'the user naiy ee y e' `vice is ofparticular advantage, as the user may turn in any'direction to get abetter llght on the glass, without -v tion `relative to the glass.

easily arranged about t e neck of the user,

the sides depending at the front of the body. A b acket 3 1s formed fromanelongated member,l bent u on itself and having the 4ends adjacentlyocatedl and oppositely and outwardly disposed.- The extremities of thebracket -are downwardly bent to form fingers 4. The latter are adaptedto be-Lremovably arranged in the sockets 2 of the hanger. One end of thebracket 3 forms a loop 5 encompassing the other adjacent end, as shownmost clearly in Fig. 1. l `f Movably carried by the bracket 3 is a blockhaving grooves 7 to engage the sides. of the bracket, between which itis slidabl mounted. Arranged on one side of the block 6 and preferablyinte ral therewith, is a A lthreaded stem 8. A s ottediarm 9, at one endof which a mirror 10 is mountedengages the stem 8 and is slidablycarried thereby.

Al nut 11 suitably threaded to receive the stem 8 ,serves to .jam theslotted arm in any desired position against the block 6. As the.,

block is movably arranged on the bracket 3, the mirror may be adjustedat any-suitable .distance from the body of the user, while the slottedarm, in combination with the nut 11, permits a further double adjustmentof the mirror, as 1t can be moved in thejdirection of the length of thearmfand atL the Sametime can be pivoted about the stem 8.

Having. thus described my' ivention,`I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent:
